Procedure
To a solution of methyl 3-iodo-4-methylthiophene-2-carboxylate [Oakwood Product Inc.] (10 g, 35.4 mmol) in THF (200 mL) was added a solution of 2N NaOH (19.50 mL, 39.0 mmol). MeOH was added to the reaction mixture until a homogeneous solution was obtained. After about 4 h, concentrated HCl was added until a pH of about 1 was obtained. The reaction mixture was partially concentrated under reduced pressure and the resulting solid was collected by filtration and dried under reduced pressure to provide the title compound as a brown solid (9.50 g, 100%): LC/MS (Table 1, Method a) Rt=2.55 min; m/z: 267 (M−H)−.
